Another fun thing we get to do in photo 12 is commercial photography.We must photo a person and a product. For the product, I chose to do coffee beans, and felt that a cleaver way to portray them would be with a coffee cup. As well, as my class has a light box in it. **Note** If you ever get the chance c to use a light box, do it!! You will never have so much fun. It takes lots of patience, and lots of moving things around.
I first took quite a few images, with more of an "artsy" feel, and thought they looked great, but then I realized, it wasn't about art, as much as selling the product. So, the light needed to highlight the product, and give it a popping effect.
Here are a few raw images of the cup. No photoshop added.
And the final one with a bit of photoshop :)
Ultimatly, the final one isn't my favorite, but it is the one that I felt reflected the idea of a comercial product the best.
